The report doesn't sit well with critics. The Texas ACLU released a statement saying, "The use of body cameras would ensure that CBP’s officers remain accountable for their actions and would also protect them from false or frivolous complaints."

The CBP is just one of the many law enforcement groups being pressured to adopt body cameras in the wake of a number of high profile police killings.

But some groups argue the agency's relatively high number of fatal incidents warrant more transparency. According to the ACLU, at least 42 people have died "at the hands of CBP officers" since 2010.

But implementing a body camera program could be hard for the CBP. Border agents are sometimes sent out in the field for weeks at a time, so finding cameras that can withstand the heat is a big obstacle.

Next –– the CBP says it plans to add body-worn cameras at checkpoints and other operations as it continues to wrestle with the decision.
